Wasteful?

I'm an ex BBC Online employee. Most people don't realise quite how few people are involved in the creation and update of the BBC website. When I was there it was generally 2 people per site (and each person was on more than one site). We had a dozen staff looking after a hundred sites using old and borrowed tech and the occasional independent flash developer.

The BBC was never wasteful. Don't believe what you read in the anti-BBC press. They have their own agenda.
